I ran into a problem with my computer yesterday. The hard drive filled up. I was unable to find out what caused this to happen. It cleared itself up when I started to close everything down and delete what files I knew was save. The one thing I did notice was the difference, df and du showed.

You probably can't, try doing traceroute -n x.x.x.x. If this fails then the network you are on does not allow pings. If it does work, the problem is DNS lookup issue. david On Fri, 5 Jan 2001, Steve Lee wrote: > when i do a traceroute i get a bunch of > > 1 * * * > 2 * * * > 3 * * * >

The security by router is not as good as Linux. Cisco sells a different box (PIX) for firewall functionality. You can give yourself basic security by the cisco router. In most cases this will be sufficient. david On Wed, 3 Jan 2001, Leonard den Ottolander wrote: > Hi again Pet
